She always said her greatest accomplishments were her children and grandchildren. We were the lucky ones to have her for our mom/grandma. She was the most amazing mom and made everything so special from birthdays, holidays to everyday life. When she would babysit her grandkids, they had so much fun such as playing hide and seek in the dark and she would play along with them. They loved it when she would have sleepovers with them. She was a kind, fun, loving, generous, compassionate, caring, strong- and open-minded woman.

A Catholic Mass and memorial service will be held at a later date. 

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to St. Vincent de Paul.
